I'm mom of the best boy in the world. Justas is a 10-year-old boy known for being active, kind, helpful, and deeply empathetic. He is always the first to offer help, whether at school or anywhere else he is needed. In his class, he is one of the top-performing students, with a bright future ahead of him.

Sport is a very important part of Justas’ life. He practices karate with great dedication and was eagerly looking forward to summer camp, where he planned to earn his green belt – a goal he worked hard for and truly looked forward to.

However, a tragic accident changed everything.

While helping his father with outdoor work, mowing the lawn, Justas suffered a severe injury to his hand. Two fingers he lost and one of them was especially badly affected. It was an unexpected and devastating accident that suddenly turned his everyday life upside down.

Right now, we are in the healing process. Doctors are doing everything they can physically, but emotionally this is extremely difficult for Justas. He cries often and is afraid that he will no longer be the same – that he won’t be able to play sports, learn as well at school, or live an active life like his friends. These thoughts are very heavy for a 10-year-old child.

As a family, we are looking for ways to give Justas the best possible chance to regain his independence and confidence. One of our hopes is advanced prosthetic solutions – electronic fingers that could help him restore some function and improve his quality of life. Unfortunately, these solutions are not fully funded in Lithuania, and the cost is far beyond what we can manage alone.

That is why we are kindly asking for your help.

Every contribution, no matter the size, brings Justas one step closer to a future where he can feel strong, independent, and happy again. A future with fewer tears, where his dreams are still alive, and where he can continue learning, playing, and growing just like his peers.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who chooses to support Justas on his journey back to a full and active life.
